Hello, I'm trying to import by reference chunks of formatted text (headings and paragraphs) from a FrameMaker file in one book to a FrameMaker file in another book to support re-use of content across books. I have full access to all the books on the network, and I'm using FrameMaker 7.0 Unstructured. The Adobe Help indicates that I can use File | Import and import text by reference, but using that method, it appears I can only get the file. I want sections of the original file (not the entire flow). The Adobe Help also indicates I can copy the portion I want from the original file and use Paste | Special in the target file, selecting Paste Link. The Paste Link radio button is unavailable. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong? I searched the forum for text inset and import by reference and I don't see this problem. From a search of the postings, I see that there are problems with the Cross-References being unclickable in the resulting PDF, but I don't know from the postings if that has been fixed in FrameMaker 7.0 or not. Has that issue been fixed in FrameMaker 7.0? Thank you in advance!
